But everything in the american section tastes like crumbly dust with sugar. It probably doesn't help that the section is basically months old peanut butter, marshmallow fluff and assorted chocolate bars. I tried some peanut butter and jam in a jar together thing, it's what I imagine diabetes tastes like.

Does the UK section over there taste like old overbrewed tea and bitter, bitter disappointment?

How the hell? I grew up with that stuff and love it, but if that much ever touched my lips at once I'd die from shock.

Your cleverness doesn't even work here because Marmite is ridiculously high in sodium anyway and will dry and chap your lips nearly instantly.

Australian Marmite is a completely different thing to English Marmite, or so I've been told.

The UK section is almost entirely candy, occasionally there will be a tiny vial of vegimite or marmite. It's all the same foul spread to us, so we don't care.

Also, people actually eat Fluff? I occasionally see it at the supermarket but have never known anyone who has eaten more than once on a lark.

It's used in desserts, lazy man smores, and the occasional penut butter and fluff sandwich mostly. I've never seen anyone straight up eat it.

I remember stories of an advertising company from Oz branching to America, and they sent small packets of Vegemite to several hundred US companies they were trying to woo. The cover letters read something like, "We got 20 million people to love this. Imagine what we can do for your products."

When i visited the states from the UK they had 'ethnic' sections full of english food in just the same way. Its nothing unusual.

Well yeah but we're the rulers of the world, why would we be relegated to an "ethnic" section?

Fluff can be good on a peanut butter sandwich.

I knew it was gonna be by that guy, as soon as I saw the title. God he's horrible.

This is actually from one of his anime books (it looks like there are now several).


I wanted to make sure this one wasn't a parody of his crap. I checked and it's sold at Barnes and Noble.
